For what it's worth, the latest microcode update seems to be the one dated 2011-04-28 (DwnldID=20050) as available at http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=20050 (or at hxxp://downloadmirror.intel.com/20050/eng/microcode-20110428.tgz bypassing the license screen).
Manual instructions as a workaround: Downloading this archive and extract the microcode.ctl file it contains, then store this file at /usr/share/misc/intel-microcode.dat (optionally after moving the previous version out of the place). Then optionally run "microcode_ctl -u" to apply (or reboot). This file, microcode_ctl and a hook to execute microcode_ctl should probably be included in an initrd so that it is loaded early in the boot process (but this is really beyond this bug report). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/783239 Title: update-intel-microcode crashed with KeyError in getmember(): "filename u'microcode-20110428.dat' not found" -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
